Dual Wielding Info.

Post » Tue Sep 04, 2012 12:27 am

I am building a warrior "striker" and have hit a bump with the dual weild part. I am considering either running daul swords or axes but was wondering what the axes bleed perk was. I have also built him non-sneak with archery as long range, light armor for quick movement and light magic build (just restoration). Overall the build is suppose to run on the idea of hunter with the ability to deal good damage from afar and continue to do so while closing the gap and then swithing over to dual wield to deal quick damage to surviving enemies. I dont normally play this style just wanted some opinions.

The bleed isn't much at all. About single digit damage if I'm remembering correctly. The sword perk would be better but even that isn't great. Personally I just skip those perks.

Dual Wield is my favorite style. With that said I normally build myself for speed, Sword and dagger for the highest speed and two swords for a little more power. If you dont mind using the elemental fury shout add that in too. You said nothing about using smithing so I'm going with your base damage is lower then what I use so with the axes perk of bleeding it could help with small groups of enemies I think, mess one up badly move on to the next and just let the first one bleed out.

Everything you've said sounds fine just be ready to pick sword or axe when the time comes. Let the character your making decided for you if your not sure.
